 1953 Cadillac by Ghia... the Rita Hayworth car
it has an interesting history http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2011/03/1953-cadillac-series-62-rebodied-by.html and the color in daylight is closer to purple.


1955 Lincoln Indianapolis


1956 Oldsmobile Golden Rocket had an interesting design for a steering wheel. the spokes are at one side. Looks like maybe the speedometer was in the center of the steering wheel too... imagine how far that steering wheel would roll up toward the roof


1957 Chrysler Diablo by Ghia

ULC stands for Urban Luxury Concept

Designed at GM's North Hollywood Advanced Design Center under the direction of Frank Saucedo, the ULC purports to be a baby Cadillac with a smaller-than-usual footprint, plus lots of room inside and a frugal hybrid powertrain under the hood.

 wow... wire rims, and aerodynamics... but no information on what is the story behind that car

looks like a bus converted to use as a car hauler, and though the step cut outs are great, the cab looks ridiculous


If the weather is so nice you can sleep outdoors, a bunkbed on your Pontiac might not be a bad idea for the kids to look at the stars

ever think about concept car designers being amazing at everything except the glaringly obvious rims and wheels? Always the most let down aspect of a cool prototype

that wagon must weigh a lot...

 the adjustable wings are suspect, but the fold up 4 wheels looks like brilliant engineering.
